Thanks for your comments. The book is knitted lace doilies by Tessa Lorant 1986. I have not been able to figure out. Been knitting for over 40 years and have never been stumped like this. Have tried a few things and up having to back up 4 rows. Will continue to look for an answer.

Knitted Doilies - Instruction by: Ratchadawan
Hi Jane,
I know that "O" means yarn over or yarn above Needle. I remember at one point I was looking at vintage patterns and came across this O and N things and I thought that was interesting. The rest of them I don't have a clue. Is there any explanation anywhere within this pattern or in a front or back of a book? I would love to know what it mean. Do you have a link of a source that I can take a look at? Would love to help but I can't. Sorry for getting back to you late. I missed your mail and just found it last night.
If anyone can help with this question, please step in.
